The draft Paris Protocol, which includes EU’s climate pledge for the UN climate talks in Paris, december 2015, was leaked to me.

Highlights

The EU’s climate pledge is: ‘Achieving at least 40% domestic reduction in [GHG] emissions in 2030 by gradually increasing reduction level over the period beyond the existing reduction target of 20% for 2020.’

The EU furthermore calls for a global long term goal: ‘to reduce global emissions by at least 60 % below 2010 levels by 2050‘.
